Ore Washing Plant
The Ore Washing Plant (OWP) is an EV tier multiblock for washing or simple washing crushed ores. The difference between washing and simple washing is that the latter is significantly faster but does not produce any byproducts from ores. The OWP is a direct upgrade from the singleblock ore washer and simple washer because it can process both types of recipes, runs at 500% speed, and offers 4 parallels per voltage tier.
Construction
The OWP has no tiered components. Buses/hatches may replace any casing anywhere on the structure. Multi-amp and laser energy hatches are not supported, but there can be multiple regular energy hatches for overclocking. The water is a one-time-cost to prime the machine and inserted into the structure via a reservoir hatch or input hatch. Use the Multiblock Structure Hologram Projector to visualize/build the structure.
Structure
- Controller: Front center, 2nd layer
- 70-85 Wash Plant Casing
- 15 Steel Frame Box
- 7 Steel Gear Box Casing
- 1+ Energy Hatch: Any wash plant casing
- 1 Maintenance Hatch: Any wash plant casing
- 1 Muffler Hatch: Any wash plant casing
- 1+ Input Bus: Any wash plant casing
- 1+ Input Hatch: Any wash plant casing
- 1+ Output Bus: Any wash plant casing
Wallsharing
OWPs may wallshare each of their sides to save on casings and buses/hatches. That includes the reservoir hatch for supplying water. No recipe uses more than 1A of power so it is possible to share one energy hatch between two machines.
Usage
The OWP is a direct upgrade from the singleblock ore washer and simple washer because it can process both types of recipes, runs at 500% speed, and offers 4 parallels per voltage tier.
| LV | MV | HV | EV | IV | LuV | ZPM | UV | UHV | UEV | UIV | UMV | UXV | MAX | MAX+ | |
| Parallels | 4 | 8 | 12 | 16 | 20 | 24 | 28 | 32 | 36 | 40 | 44 | 48 | 52 | 56 | 60 |
The OWP has two operating modes, listed below. Switch modes in the GUI of the controller. The ore washer mode is particularly useful for ore processing setups since it is very fast and produces byproducts.
- Ore Washer - Washes crushed ores with 200L of water each. Does produce byproducts.
- Simple Washer - Washes crushed ores and impure dusts with 100L of water each. Does not produce byproducts.
Trivia
- The OWP used to process chemical bath recipes as well, before the release of the Industrial Chemical Bath.
